New SF Ballet conductor recordings

For those wondering how the San Franciso Ballet Orchestra will fare under the new conductor Andrew Mongrelia, pick up his recording of Prokofiev's "Romeo and Juliet" with the NSO of Ukraine on Naxos 8.553184-5. Excellent value, since Naxos is a budget label.

And for those interested in more of Mogrelia's output, just run a search at amazon.com from the banner at the head of each Ballet Talk page. He does a lot of ballet and dance-related scores. Give a listen. He's got the love for the music, now to see how he fits with the dancing!
